but how much impact do you think benedict arnold's actions had on him when he was second in command? guest: that's a great question, because i think it was a pivotal and shattering experience. washington did not give his trust quickly or easily, and i think it became exponentially harder for him to do so after the betrayal of arnold. americans tend to forget, he was a hero on the continental side early in the war. host: having fought a war for independence, was he then a nationalist or an internationalist? guest: well, he was a nationalist, but again -- and we get into the age-old debate about isolationism, washington for years was trotted out supposedly as the author of a farewell address of entangling alliances by isolationist. he actually use would the phrase permanent alliance. and what he was talking about was, you have to remember, the united states was a raw, feeble power. the united states army numbered all of 600 men in 1789. it has been mauled by indians along the northwest frontier. the last thing in the world that the united states could afford was to get sucked into euro
